Steps:
- 1. Grate carrot and zucchini in a large bowl. Take a clean towel and place mixture on the towel and wring extra moisture out. Place back in the bowl. Add the remaining ingredients, MINUS the coconut oil, and only 1/3 cup flour. Mix with your hands until you can make a ball and it will not fall apart. You may have to add more flour to achieve the desired consistency. On a separate plate, sprinkle some flour with some salt and pepper - this is for dredging the mixture.
- 2. In a large skillet, add coconut oil and heat on medium heat. Let warm up for a minute. Take the mixture and divide it into fourths. Take one serving of the mixture, roll it into a ball and roll into the flour mixture on the plate. Carefully place into the skillet, flattening until your desired size and thickness. Do this for all 4 servings. Let cook for 8-10 minutes on each side. You may have to add more oil when you flip. Make sure they do not burn. Simple and delicious!
Tips:
- Grate the zucchini and carrots finely using a box grater or food processor fitted with a grating disc. This will help them cook evenly in the pancakes.
- Squeeze the grated zucchini and carrots in a cheesecloth or clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture. This will help prevent the pancakes from becoming too watery.
- Use a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat to cook the pancakes. This will help prevent them from sticking and burning.
- Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the pancakes with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
